LAKELANDS, MANDURAH — TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT Grievance MR D.A
Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Thursday, 8 May 2014] p3048b-3050a Mr David Templeman; Mr Dean Nalder LAKELANDS, MANDURAH — TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT Grievance MR D.A. TEMPLEMAN (Mandurah) [9.14 am]: My grievance this morning is to the Minister for Transport and concerns a very important issue for the residents of the booming Mandurah suburb of Lakelands and the parents and students who access the two schools in that locality. Lakelands is a major suburb in north Mandurah. In the past 10 years, it has grown from a community of a few dozen people to a population of more than 3 000 residents. The demographics include many first home buyers, a large number of young families with children and retirees. It has a very large retirement village called Lattitude Lakelands, which, in itself, houses more than 400 residents. The suburb is located between Mandurah Road on the west and the Perth–Mandurah rail line to the east. The only entrance into and out of Lakelands from Mandurah Road is Catalina Drive. Catalina Drive carries the traffic into and out of the suburb and there are no traffic lights at its intersection with Mandurah Road. Indeed, Catalina Drive is extremely busy. There are two schools in the area—Mandurah Baptist College, with 1 200 students and Lakelands Primary School, which, when it is fully operational next year, will have more than 450 students, compounding the volume of traffic and the safety concerns of the residents of Lakelands. At peak times Catalina Drive is expected to carry residents leaving the suburb for work and other day-to-day pursuits and their return, as well as the huge number of parents who drop off their children at Mandurah Baptist College.
